Hi, we're Nola and Todd Morgan

Hi, we're Nola and Todd Morgan

The Morgan family has run Ohiwa Beach Holiday Park since its inception in 1988/1989. In late 2000 my husband Todd and our children, Dean and Renae arrived at the park. With time and a lot of hard work, the park has been built up to have full facilities for camping and a selection of units.

We made a commitment to be responsible for this special piece of Ohiwa for future generations. We have been rewarded with several awards for sustainable business practices which are still in place today.

Please come and join us!

Information

Ohiwa Tasman Holiday Parks

Family fun starts here

Set on five landscaped hectares beside the sparkling Pacific Ocean and a sheltered harbour, our Ohiwa Beach holiday park offers the best of sea and bush.

The park is ideally situated with easy access to the towns and beaches of the eastern Bay of Plenty, and one of the great New Zealand road trips around the East Cape.

But you don’t have to travel far for the good times. It’s just a few steps from the park to the magnificent Ohiwa Beach where you can surf, swim, fish, walk or read a book beneath a pohutukawa tree.

Hire a kayak or paddleboard from reception and explore Ohiwa Harbour, or enjoy a walk in the coastal nature reserve adjoining the park.

  • We understand that it was a long weekend when we booked by phone and explained that there were 8 adults and 1 child, recommended that we book 1 cabin for 3 people and 1 cabin for 6 people which we did

    . Our cabin for 6 people was extremely cramped and very dirty, we had a lot of flies in the cabin the whole 3 days we were there. The sofa bed looked liked it needed a really good clean, along with the whole cabin. Very little pans or bowls to cook for 6 people which we managed on our little BBQ and electric frying pan, which fortunately we had brought with us, as the hot plates in the cabin wernt working. Thought we would try the communial kitchens but no luck there as no pots or bowls, and 1 oven that worked. There was no fan in the cabin, so extremely hot, we had to go out and purchase one after the first night of trying to sleep. The smaller cabin was perfect for the 3 that stayed in there. The big advantage of this campground is the beach.

  • Beautiful remote spot, directly on the beach, very relaxing and friendly with amazing views from the rustic, clean kitchen:-) make sure you ask for a Seaview site, so worth it!

    Kids loved the swimming pool, bouncy pillow and go carts, Ruby, our dog, enjoyed running on the beach, we definitely will be back!

  • Absolutely gorgeous spot right on the beach.

    Not crowded despite it being school holidays. We had planned to stay only one night but extended to 2. We really enjoyed the night bush walk to see the glow worms!

  • We watched the Gabrielle trajectory forecasts and headed for this lovely place to sit it out in our rented camper van.

    No hardship! Peaceful and well-spaced sites, even when it was busy at first. Wonderful managers who gave everyone TLC through the storm and are just great people. Clean toilets and showers, some basics available in the office, most sites are sheltered by the treed hill, and of course, you have the lovely beach, fishing and surf. A good walk up to the Pa above the camp to commune with sheep and cows. Highly recommended.

  • Nola and Todd are legends, the location and facilities are sublime.

    We bring groups to Stay at Ohiwa and are never disappointed. I like to cook for our groups and the pavillion kitchen is the best!

  • This was our first visit to this camp and we were delighted.

    We visited with our Campervan and had a Power site overlooking the sea. The property is wonderfully situated right on the beach, its location is quite a remote area making this a quiet relaxing site. Although we didn't try it ourselves it's obvious that there is good fishing from the beach. Facilities are spotlessly cleaned and maintained. Showers are 50c for 5 minutes so remember to bring actual coins with you. We will certainly be back.

    It is well resourced with helpful staff. We liked the fact that it is right on the beach and had nothing to distract you.

    You need a car to get there but once there you are in a beautiful location. The cabin we stayed in had everything needed and was very comfortable. Another heater was provided when asked for. Excellent fishing from the beach there.

  • Hi. We stayed here just after the Ester rush had all left - what lucky day!

    The place was nicely active and friendly. We requested to park right up front by the dunes, which was awesome to wake up to that. We liked it so much, we stayed an extra night.

    Got recommended by the office person to walk up the track behind the camp which we did. Nice walk. There is a heated pool at the camp too.

    Nicely surprised to see they welcome DOGS here. And have an area by the dunes especially for camping dogs, so we will be back with our guy, who had to stay behind... : (

    The place is clean and well kept, I can see why they get so many good reviews.

    Keep up the good work guys : )

  • My expectations were surpassed.

    I found the camp and the area around was a hidden gem of New Zealand. I did paddel boarding in the estuary Saturday and Sunday morning and did heaps of walking. The regional park walk was a beautiful place. Accommodation was brilliant very clean and tidy bed was comfortable. The staff were all lovely and friendly.. I will be back.
